아동에게 적합한 고구려 장기 게임 개발을 위해 Bruner의 EIS 이론을 근거로, 역사상 가장 강력한 힘의 나라였던 고구려 문화를 담은 캐릭터 8종을 개발하였다. 장기 게임은 아동의 집중력과 사고 발달에 유용하며 두뇌발달과 학습향상에 효과적이지만, 본격적인 장기 게임을 하기까지 장기말 종류, 장기말 움직이는 방법, 장기말 배치, 기본 전술 등 익혀야 할 요소가 많고 이것을 배우는 과정이 지루하며 어렵다. 따라서 말의 종류와 이동 방법을 흥미롭게 익힐 수 있도록 3D카드와 플래시 게임을 개발하였고, 캐릭터를 적용한 보드게임을 제작해 보았다.

As the importance of Culture Technology (music, publication, mobile, film, video, cartoon, animation, character, game, broadcasting etc) is increased, the field of character industry recently has been recognized as an independent brand value beyond the existing view point of simple designing; it also has been given much attention as a main axis leading the cultural industry of the 21 st century. The character of a local government plays roles such as a symbolic part of a region, parts of tourism and public relations, and a profit-making function, which results into generation of regional image and activation of regional economy. However, the present application strategy of the character is only limited to an early stage of regional advertisements. In this context, this study is aimed to investigate and analyze the character development of local governments, especially 31 cities and goons of Gyeonggi Province, comparing with those of local governments of Japan. In the long run, this will provide some suggestions for strategy of character applications. Then, this research is expected to be used as basic reference materials for character development of other local governments and government agencies.

본 기고에서는 멀티미디어 컨텐트에 등장하는 애니메이션 캐릭터를 개발하는 캐릭터 모델링 시스템의 기본적인 요구기능과 캐릭터 모델링 기법을 분석하고, 상용화된 모델링 시스템 및 라이브러리를 소개, 분석한다. 앞으로 설계되는 캐릭터 모델링 소프트웨어는 모델링 및 애니메이션 시스템을 통합한 환경에서 곡면기반의 기하 모델링 소프트웨어가 주류를 이룰 것으로 전망된다. 또한 캐릭터의 외피와 같이 유연하고 부드러운 물체를 표현하기 위하여 physically based modeling 기법과 음함수 곡면이 많이 사용될 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, the importance of the efficient production pipeline design has been increased for 3D animation, which becomes more delicate. In this paper, we propose 3D animation character development pipeline using 3D printing technology. We introduce 3D printing procedure into each step of the classical 3D animation and character development pipeline to incorporate the feed-back from the designer immediately. Specially, during the production step, we can find the design errors and minimize the period of production by using 3D printing of approximate shape of designed character. Using proposed method, eight DreaMegg characters were developed and their quality was very high with respect to 3D virtual graphics and real product. Using our method, high-quality 3D animation character can be developed with the minimized time and cost for development by reflecting the feed-back into production line from designers and researchers immediately.
